A dedicated content track at the event will explore options and pinpoint technologies that can ease the burden on healthcare systems.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthcareitnews.com\/news\/emea\/european-health-data-space-launched-can-it-achieve-its-goals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">European Health Data Space<\/a> features high on the agenda, as it is set to stimulate major healthcare changes right across Europe. \u00a0Other European cross-border initiatives will also showcase their plans, helping the ecosystem embrace the changes they are making, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gravitatehealth.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gravitate Health<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/label2enable.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Label2Enable<\/a>. The conference will also look at how the non-EU states in Europe can co-create digital transformation with their EU counterparts.<\/p>\n<p>Thirdly, with the European Recovery and Resilience Fund currently deploying more than \u20ac16bn to prompt digital transformation in many EU states, the conference will prioritise digital maturity, including the need for national measurement initiatives such as Germany\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthcareitnews.com\/news\/emea\/german-moh-embarks-digital-maturity-assessment-himss-and-partners\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DigitalRadar<\/a> and France\u2019s Maturin-H. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>HIMSS is working with governments and regional commissioners in Germany, Italy, Poland, Portugal, France and the UK, to help boost the digital maturity of their hospitals and healthcare systems. A key advantage of locating the conference in Portugal is the presence of three leading European <a href=\"https:\/\/www.himss.org\/news\/himss22-europe-celebrates-healthcare-systems-validated-emram-stages-6-and-7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stage 7<\/a> maturity hospitals: Hospital Lusiadas Porto, Hospital Lusiadas Lisboa and Hospital de Cascais Doutor Jos\u00e9 de Almeida. Stage 7 maturity refers to the most digitally mature stage measured using HIMSS Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model (EMRAM). Delegates will receive first-hand exposure of what Stage 7 looks like for patients, clinicians, and management and how it impacts outcome. Hospital staff will also share their experience of what worked well and what worked less well in their digital transformation journeys.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In addition to focusing on these three key topics, the conference will deep dive into other core areas including HIEs and interoperability; AI and cybersecurity; and person-enabled health. The five main conference tracks are: digital maturity, data and analytics; innovative care pathways; prevention, precision and population health; workforce crisis solutions; and health system value and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs custodian of multiple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.himss.org\/what-we-do-solutions\/digital-health-transformation\/maturity-models\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">digital maturity analytics models<\/a>, deployed by thousands of healthcare providers, HIMSS is uniquely placed to deliver a conference that actively advances digital health in Europe,\u201d said Thomlison. \u201cThis is the reason we have subtitled the conference &#8220;Unlocking Digital Health: Less Hype, More Action&#8221;.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Portuguese debut\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>HIMSS23 Europe opens with the support of national institutions including the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spms.min-saude.pt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shared Services of Ministry of Health (SPMS)<\/a>, Portugal, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthportugal.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Health Cluster Portugal<\/a>, the Portuguese Agency for Investment and External Commerce (AICEP) and the Agency for Competitiveness and Innovation (IAPMEI). \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSPMS is thrilled to be part of the biggest European healthcare event in Lisbon.
